Easy Pan-Fried Pangasius Fish Recipe

This pan-fried Pangasius recipe highlights the fish’s natural flavor with minimal seasoning — perfect when you want something light, crispy, and satisfying without extra steps.

Prep Time

10 minutes

Cooking Time

8–10 minutes (about 3–4 minutes per side)

Serves

2–3 people (depending on fillet size)

What you’ll do: lightly season the fillets, pan-fry over medium heat until golden, then finish with lemon and herbs. Baking and grilling alternatives work equally well using the same seasoning.

Ingredients

• 400g FishEato Pangasius Fish Fillet (boneless)

• 2 tbsp olive oil or neutral cooking oil

• 1 tsp garlic powder (or 1 clove fresh garlic, minced)

• 1 tsp paprika or red chili powder

• ½ tsp black pepper

• Salt to taste (about ½–1 tsp)

• Lemon wedges or slices

• Fresh herbs (parsley or coriander), chopped

Optional: a pinch of dried herbs, lemon pepper seasoning, or butter for finishing.

Tools: non-stick pan, spatula, kitchen paper, optional thermometer.

How to Cook Pangasius Fish

1. Prepare the Fish

Thaw Pangasius fillets safely in the refrigerator overnight or under cold running water until pliable. Pat completely dry using kitchen paper — this step helps achieve a crisp surface during pan-frying.

2. Season Lightly

Season both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Keep seasoning light to allow the natural flavor of the fish to stand out.

3. Pan-Fry

Heat oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat until hot. Place the fillets gently into the pan and cook for 3–4 minutes per side, turning once, until golden and cooked through. The fish is ready when the flesh turns opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

4. Oven/Baked Method (Alternative)

For baking, preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Place seasoned fillets on a parchment-lined tray and bake for 10–12 minutes, depending on thickness, until flaky and opaque.

5. Finish & Serve

Remove from heat, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the fillets, and garnish with herbs. Optional: add a small knob of butter at the end for extra richness.

Food-safety note: cook promptly after thawing; do not refreeze thawed fillets.

Serving Suggestions

• Serve with mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables

• Pair with garlic rice, quinoa, or buttered noodles

• Enjoy in sandwiches, wraps, or fish burgers

• Serve with tartar sauce, chili mayo, or lemon butter

Pangasius works well in both light meals and hearty plates, making it a flexible option for lunch or dinner.

Storage Tips

Store frozen fillets in original packaging or an airtight freezer bag to prevent freezer burn.
